Editorial Rooms ............... A GREAT TRIBUTE. On Wednesday the Hartford Cour- ant assuming there was ‘no longer any doubt about the doubtful states,” and ‘“no longer any doubt about the country” announced that ‘Hughes is elected” and forthwith penned a beautiful editorial tribute.

Aside from other eclements enter- ing into the campaign there was one noticeable feature which will appeal to every man who is in business or who contemplates going into business. That is the advertising that was done by the boys who were out to beat Wilson. The very nature of this ad- vertising, such as the illustrated bill- board poster with the cruel inscrip- tion over a picture of Wilson, “He Has Neglected Me and Mine,” serves to prove the modern advertising man’s claim that it pays to get your wares | before the public,—no matter how cheap they are.

Further than hat it is good to see such clean cut kpirit in the mewspapers that were Entagonistic to the President before Blection and which now have changed heir attitude. By-gones will soon be by-gones, and all the mistakes of the ast will be forgiven. The New York Pribune, which fought Woodrow Wil- fon perhaps as hard as the Hartford ourant, says in its leading editorial his morning:—*“On election night, jvhen the returns from those states fvhich have hitherto been regarded pivotal in national campaigns in- icated a large majority for Mr. fughes, The Tribune editorially pyrote of the result that it was a epudiation of Mr. Wilson and an nswer to his declaration of policy and purpose. The returns which have bubsequently been received have desn- bnstrated clearly that The Tribune vas mistaken in its conclusions and hat, far from a repudiation of Mr. ilson, the returns that are now at and constitute the most remarkable indorsement that has come 0 a Democratic President since the hays of Andrew Jackson.” | personal WILSON, THE PRESIDENT. ‘Woodrow Wilson in being re-elected President of the United States has burmounted greater obstacles than yere thrown 1in the path of any bther aspirant to the office. Yet he is eturned by a comfortable majority bt the voters in the nation. The campaign against Wilson will eceive the attention of historians and probably be branded as filled with pnore invective and envenomed criti- ism than any campaign before or fter. The attack on Cleveland fades nto insignificance when the past six honths are reviewed and some of the hings recalled. “Anything to Beat Wilson” is the legant slogan that will be tagged on 0 the year 1916 when the historians | et down the facts. And “Anything 0 Beat Wilson” in years to come will onvey the whole story. It means just hat it says. Anything to beat him,— les, detraction, disparagement, vilif; pation, scandal, aspersion, anything beat him; but beat him, by hook br crook. That was the idea. And yet in the face of all these hings, in the face of the biggest drive all Street special money nterests made against any presidential andidate, Woodrow Wilson stands to- the choice of the mafjority of the people as their twenty-ninth Presi- Hent. it has been estimated that Wall Btreet and powers threw and the its allied ato the political arena some seventy fuillions of dollars with which to de- at Wilson. Clinging to tenets of pld they still believed that money ould buy an election. Either that, pr the American’ people were fools hnd could be. led by glary advertise- looked as if Charles Evans Hughes | had been elected, Woodrow Wilson was shown to be in the lead, the Re- publican campalgn managers have not yet given up the race. “Anything to Beat Wilson” still holds good. There might be a chance to bag a few more votes in the electoral college, and while there is strife there is hope. So the case may be thrown into the | courts in those states that are doubt- ful. But even that will make no dif- ference in the final outcome, except insofar as it will hinder and hamper the government at Washington until the cases are settled. There is no pos- sible chance of Charles Evans Hughes winning the Presidency now, unless some miracle happens and a new state comes into the Union with five elector- al votes for him. Wilson can concede every doubtful state to Mr. Hughes, give them to him as a present, and the total electoral votes of Mr. Hughes would be 262, or four less than the number necessary to choice in the electoral college. The wishes of the American people have been satisfied and Woodrow Wilson is returned to complete his progressive legislation in their behalf. He has received the greatest personal endorsement ever given a Democratic President since the second election of “Old Hickory,” which bears a close resemblance to the endorsement of Woodrow Wilson. TAMMANY DEAD OR ALIVE. Whether Tammany is dead or not is the question of the hour. The New York World has written its obituary. The Hartford Courant is disposed to place this In the same category with the news Mark Twain once received of his death,—greatly exaggerated. Tammany dead or Tammany alive, the fact remains that Woodrow Wil son would have none of Tammany Hall and its nefarious workings. He fought Tammany just as he fought Wall Street, and he should be given credit for it. 'Wilson has never be- lleved in patronage insofar as that term is in anyway related with graft. He has made enemies in his own par- ty because he would not bend to the wishes of those who sought sinecures. That is primarily why Wilson would not seek the favor of Tammany, and, | it will be remembered, Murphy and his subordinate chieftains were disposed to march in the parade of 1918. Thev arrived to take part at the last moment, were given one of the last places in the line of march, and newspapermen who cov- ered the story affirm that the Presi- dent left the reviewing stand just be- fore Tammany put in an appearance. So Tammany can be dead or alive so far as Woodrow Wilson cerned. not inaugural is They seek no favors from him; he has granted them none. He fought the good fight against Tam- many and he won. Further, he won without the assistance of cliques and clans in other great states that hith- erto were looked up as absolutely im- portant for presidential candidates. Woodrow Wilson goes back to work with clean hands. con- ND TEDDY “I wish to state now that I will not under any circumstances make any recommendations to Mr. Hughes with reference to appointments or to his legislative policy”—Theodore Roosevelt’s statement Tuesday, Nov. 7.

Germanys Hatred. (Hartford Courant) Herbert Bayard Swope, a member of the staff of the “New York World”, many, bears witness that Germany’s hatred of the United States is bitter and deep. If we were to obey the ordinary impulses of human nature and follow the example of Germany in trying to retaliate with compound interest for every imaginary offense, this German hatred that would cause unfortunate and perhaps complicated relations between the countries far outlasting the war. But we can af- ford to he more generous. We must recognize that Germany is under a severe strain and that the big war now promises to bring results that will be to Germany’s disadvantages. Nevertheless, we cannot but feel that the Germans, both high and low apparently, are permitting their pas- slons to overcome their reason. We cannot admit that they have any just cause for hating us, for we have all | through the war shown every consid- eration possible for Germany and have really endured more than we might have reasonably been expected to endure. We have had a campaign of crime due to German official or semi-official instigation, accompanied by murder, arson and plots against many of our industries, and under it all we have been exceedingly patient, although we have been sorely tried. So Germany, possibly because of our }patlence and endurance, has decided to hate us with a deep and bitter ha- tred. Let us continue to be patient | and to wait even with serenity for the end of the war to bring a clearer vision to the war-crazed minds of the Kaiser's people. 1 Mischief in Mexico. (New York World.) German intrigue in Mexico has been active since the beginning of the war, as the revelations in regard to von Rinstein, von Papen, Boy-End and Huerta have shown. Until now, however, there has been nothing to indicate that Gen. Carranza was in- volved. If, as the British government charges, bases for German subma- rines have been established on the Mexican coast, it will be difficult to escape the conclusion that the kaiser's agents have at length reached the first chief. Suspicion in this direc- tion will be confirmed by the fact that ,in spite of assurances and proofs of friendship on the part of the ad- ministration at Washington, the de facto government has of late exhibited increasing hostility. One of the many German diplo- matic delusions has been that if the United States could be embroiled with Mexico it would cease to be an in- dustrial, financial or political factor in the European war. In support of this policy the encouragement of Gen. Carranza in his defiance of this coun- try and his implication to unneutral acts would be logical, and it would probably be effectve to the extent of getting him into very serious trouble with his horthern neighbor. A great truth which the first chief never has recognized is that without the sanction of the United States his regime would not have lasted long enuogh to make a mark on the his- tory of his time. Evidence that he is in conspiracy with Germany would end his official carcer with an abrupt- ness that even Mexico might regard as sensational. who has recently returned from Ger- | CHILDREN’S OCOATS. to fit Children from 3 to 18 years of age. $1.98 to $10.98.

(Army and Navy Register.) The training camps for citizens will be an important subject which Secre- tary Baker will consider during the next month in order to make some important recommendations he has in contemplation and which will be presented to the military committees of congress. The details are now be- ing worked out and contemplate a larger number of camps than last year, perhaps as many as 10 or 12. It hoped to have 50,000 or 60,000 cit- izens under training, and it will be necessary to provide funds for the erection of buildings and other camp facilities at the places designated for ining gnd for furnishing uni- tence, transportation and medical supplies for those attending the camps.

C., Nov. 10.—Many points of historical interest and civic beauty were destroyed or damaged during the armed violence which be- gan in Dublin, ireland’s capital, on last Easter Monday. A geography bulletin, issued by the National Geo- graphic society from its headquarters in Washington, gives the following interesting resume of these buildings and public grounds: “Dublin, the center of many upris- ings in Ireland, besides being richer in historic association: ity of the country, is also tife largest, a thirty-three per in population since 1901, thus ng Belfast with its ten per cent. increase.

The original church stood until 890, while the present structure dates back to 1190, having been almost destroved fire in 1262.
